  1. I clamped mine by taking one amp and hooking it up at .5 ohm on both dual 2 subs, rise was to 1.2xx ohm and it did 18xx watts. Maybe your seeing a imp rise to around 3ohm and are just not getting the power you think it should do. How is your voltage doing and I'm assuming it's wired to 1ohm
  2. Here's a pic of said amps so you know I'm not just bsin I don't have pic proof of the clamp test where as it was 2 years ago tho
  3. I actually clamped a vfl 100.1 I had a few years ago to do 1800 watts.. I had two on sc lvl 4 18s w 5 coils and it pushed em to the point of getting smelly quite a bit on good clean power
  4. You can find used saz 1500 for between 225-300, or a used aq2200 is on local CL for 300
  5. Thanks for the good review, enjoy the amp, I'm happy to know it went to a good home
  6. I hope to get all my federal witholdings back.. All 600 of it... Last year they screwed my and i had to pay 100 to them
  7. Really? There is a tuxedo on CL but I didn't think it would be water proof.. It only snaps on the sides with provided rails http://huntington.craigslist.org/pts/2816061560.html
  8. I have a stepside Chevy and bed covers are becoming difficult to locate used so I'm looking into maybe making one or buying a new one but 1200 seems expensive.. Anyone have any ideas? Or a way I can do my blo thru and make the box water resistant
  9. Jon your honesty is why I went with SS instead of raammat this time, I'd like fast and honest service when buying a product that is vital
  10. I used it like 2 years ago and was a considerable amount cheaper so it was worth buying to me, I wouldn't mind Jon getting some and testing against SS tho would be quite interesting
  11. I know lots of things other people don't, doesnt mean it's worth anything lmao
  12. I'll be ordering my 15s as soon as PayPal clears my bank transfer, both of our builds at local comps repin skar audio FTW
  13. Okay little clarification, the box will be a simple rectangle box as would any prefab would be, not buying a fancy fit one or anything I will build one to spec that will not be an issue whee as I already know what I'm building.. The one thing I can't decide on is 2 10s ported or 2 12s sealed
  14. I have all the material to throw one together, plus I can sell to anyone that needs a box for their trunk..
  15. My brother just turned 16 and got his license this week, he has a 1998 firebird ram air car (rare factory v6 ram air I might add) that is getting painted right now. He always wanted a system ever since I got my first one so for his bday I bought him a jl j2 500.1 which does 500rms at 2ohm and a alpine deck. Now as you all know a firebird/Camaro has limited space in the hatch so the next thing I'm doing for his bday is building a simple box to slide down in the hatch just until he decides to upgrade and then we will go all out (after he is a little better behind the wheel) So after the back story here is my delima, I have around 2.5-3 cubes to play with should I go 2 10s ported or 2 12s sealed? I've been leaning towards the 10s where as I havnt done any work with small woofer and I think ported would sound better in the hatch.. Opinions? Subs will b skar vvx so we can add power a little later
  16. It all depends on the woofer and car, some subs like closer to a 2:1 for music where as other like closer to a 1:1 generally the smaller sealed to ported ratio also means a betters power handling yet smaller bandwidth... Generally speaking IMO a 2:1 ratio around 50hz is a good place to start when designing one.. But the best way is to build a number of them and see which one you like the most, as in build a 3:1 a 2:1 and a 1:1 with interchangeable ports and switch tuning freq anywhere from 45-55 hz..
  17. Well end of day three and there is no work from them on if it has been shipped out or not I hope it comes sometime next week at the latest
  18. Did they send you a tracking number or any clue that they had shipped it out?
  19. So I ordered this a few days ago and yet to get a tracking number or anything how long does it usually take to ship out?
